Ok so that's Day 1 done and out of the way. Wii night involved the boys doing more of the wii than me but it's a start and by the time I got the monkeys to bed it was too late to get the measuring tape out as I had forgot.
Still feel quite jolly at the moment and was good at home last night as I only had my dinner and didn't get round to eating my afternoon snack. So hopefully that's a bonus.
I tried also last night to get myself prepared for today and I think I was on to a roll, I had measured out all the bits I needed for breakfast in the morning and started preparing dinner for Day 2 whilst Day 1's was cooking, I took it too the extreme and actually made 2 dinners for Day 2. One for Day 2 and one for the freezer for next week when I am a bit busier.
I was in a good frame of mind and I knew exactly what I needed to eat and when.
Breakfast was a smoothie made with Banana, Strawberries and Orange Juice (I had to substitute the Orange Juice for Tropical but it still tasted nice) - Andrew bless him help me put all the fruit in the blender and turn it on, however he wasn't as keen to try any!
Once at work I followed this with a single brown wholemeal slice of toast topped with Marmalade and a cup of tea. Still feeling good and then later in the morning tucked into some raisins. Forgot all about the yogurt so will save this for later.
Still not hungry come lunchtime but ploughed forward in preparing my lunch - pitta bread stuffed with salad, chicken and mayo. Well even though I had weighed out the chicken the pitta was still bulging. Lunch was tasty but not enough. However I was pleasently surprised that I don't actually feel hungry.
Again there is temptation at the end of the desk by way of Chocolates, Mini Eggs and now Winegums.
But I am still trying to be good and have only munched on 3 winegums. To stop temptation any further I have had my afternoon snack just to keep me going.
I am looking forward to dinner of Chilli Con Carne with Rice and hopefully will be able to get organised again so that I have everything ready for Day 3.
Must remember - Tape Measure. :-)
